The film centers on Nathan Flomm (David) a former marketing executive at a start-up electric car company who lost a fortune due to a petty argument with his boss (Hamm). After that, he is publicly humiliated for walking away from his 10% of a company now worth billions.

Ten years later, Nathan has changed his identity and uses Rolly DaVore as his name. He lives a simple life on a small island off the coast of Massachusetts. But when his former boss shows up to renovate his summer mansion, Nathan vows to seek revenge and drive his nemesis off the island.
